Can you believe my 2014 wall planner is already filling up!
The dates for our Cardmaking Weekends in 2014 are :

Spring 1st-2nd March or 5th-6th April
Christmas 20th-21st September or 18th-19th October.

If you would like to book onto any of these you can call us on 01234 855833 and pay a deposit. The total cost of a weekend is £100 and includes 2 days 10am-5pm rubber stamping, hot lunch and refreshments. We have stampers of all abilities attending our weekends and we work at a leisurely pace so you won't get left behind.

Lisa West made this card using stamps from our Holly Christmas unmounted rubber stamp set.

As you can see the trees are made of gold leaf/gilding flakes. From touching the card I can tell that Lisa didn't used Sticky Stuff embossing powder as the images are not raised so she must have used a glue pad or the glue that goes onto your stamps - please remember if you use glue onto your stamps clean them immediately.

You do lose the detail of the snowflakes in the tree when using this technique but the do look so good in gold.

Lesley was playing with gold leaf, Sticky Stuff and Laminating Sheets on Thursday and this is what she created using our 3D Snowflake stamp set and Winter Wonderland Friends set. Oooh plus a border from the Design A Tree set and the snow from our Dottiness set.

These are some cards that Lisa West made using our Poinsettia Duo stamp set.

You may notice that she has also used our Banners and Greetings stamp sets as these are in our show on Create & Craft next Thursday at 2pm - although it is a non-Christmas show we have managed to sneak in a few Christmas cards.

We have a Table Top Sale in store later this month where customers have rented a table and are selling off there unwanted crafting goodies, so there will be lots of bargains - this is our last Table Top Sale this year.

Also on our Events page are details of any shows that we will be attending, definitely not as many as we used to but still a handful each year.

The next show we are attending is the Great Northern PaperCraft Extravaganza in Harrogate this weekend.

When we decide on the dates for our 2014 Cardmaking Weekends these will also be listed on this page.

Dates and times for our Create & Craft shows are listed on our News page which can be accessed from the Latest News bar just under the Events tab.
